<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 7524773, member: 84179&quot;]I’ve evaluated accumulations/collections for work colleagues over the years.&nbsp; Most were the usual 90% silver, Ikes, wheats, $2 notes, and the like.&nbsp; One guy had a decent 1797 Large Cent (I gave him a Saf-flip to use for storage).&nbsp; Another guy had a couple horse blanket notes (1914 red and blue seal FRN $10s and some 1923 silver certs).&nbsp; I gave him a rough estimate of value.&nbsp; A few months later he asked me if I wanted to buy them.&nbsp; Apparently, he wasn’t happy with the LCS offers, so we struck a deal that was beneficial to both of us.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>In HS, a kid who used to collect with his dad got into drugs after his father passed away.&nbsp; Every once in a while he would offer me something.&nbsp; He had a ballpark idea what things were worth but wanted cash and didn’t want to go to the LCS.&nbsp; Got a good deal on some nice local national bank notes and a couple G-F bust halves.&nbsp; Sad story, the kid was pretty smart, but failed out of college, followed the Grateful Dead for a few years, and last I heard was scraping by at jobs well below his potential.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
